/**
 * A way to write simple code while preserving the original errors is to Box them. 
 The drawback is that the underlying error type is only known at runtime and not statically determined.

The stdlib helps in boxing our errors by having Box implement conversion from any type 
that implements the Error trait into the trait object Box<Error>, via From.
